This was addressed in Plenary breakout sessions in both fall 2005 and spring 2006.

Whereas, Title 5 requires that courses in which more than 51% of class time is delivered by a distance modality undergo an additional review designated for distance education offerings; and

Whereas, Any change in course delivery, regardless of the 51% mandated cut-off, elicits questions as to how course objectives will be achieved using whatever alternative delivery mode is employed;

Resolved, That the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges encourage local college senates to adopt curriculum policies designed to ensure the integrity of courses in which any classroom time is replaced by online instruction or delivery by some other modality.
